Of course they do report some news. I think the main point is the way they report them and how they have become very political. Also, I think another worry is how they all report the same thing.

And the biggest worry is how sometimes they do not report what is really important and should be reported. I do not see how after the Iraq siaga anyone at all can trust the press.

Journalism seems no longer to have become about reporting, but forming opinions, or calling it for what it really is, propaganda one way or another. This is very different from being given the hard facts and allowed to judge for yourself. That is why wikileaks is disruptive, has a lot of public support, and people want to kiss the hand of Julian.
